Magic Bands are Flushable (Feb 4)
DGD5 was thrilled with her birthday breakfast cupcake and the CM also brought her a birthday card signed by all the characters from the Best Friends Breakfast.
Her expression here is priceless!!! Look how tickled she is! That's [wicked!] awesome.....
....... The mussels were ok, but I am spoiled with the most excellent local seafood restaurants that have fresh mussels steamed in garlic and white wine – so good. Just a little pitch – if you love seafood you will want to take a vacation to the coastal communities of New England – the BEST seafood anywhere. Ok – I will stop advertising and no I am not a travel agent, restaurant owner or inn owner.
^ That. ^ I don't eat clams in any way, shape or form, but LOVE all other kinds of seafood, especially a nice cod or haddock filet, and scallops are my all-time fave. There is NOTHING like New England seafood, from our good cold waters!
By this time DH and I had returned to our room and DD texted that they would be heading to the front desk at POFQ to try and get a replacement band. DD started to explain what happened to the front desk CMs and DGD5 interjected and solemnly explained what had happened. DD told me later how sad DGD5’s little face was as she looked up at the folks at the desk and that she was trying hard not to cry again. The CM’s were sympathetic and understanding and after a bit of talking back and one of them went out back and came out to present DGD5 with a new PINK BAND!! – which is not usually done. Plus after learning that she had purchased a few items for her pre-school classmates along with her band cover they gave her souvenir POFQ coins and stickers to bring back to her school! DD was so grateful and DGD5 was beyond thrilled.
UBER-cool!!!! Disney magic comes through for a little girl. Love it.
Speaking of the FQ - we truly LOVE this resort. The small size is perfect and everyone there is wonderful. We love being so close to the food court and buses plus the boats to DTD are such a convenience. In fact, I was already sad that we would not be returning here for our Fall trip.
Isn't it wonderful?! I stayed there on my first solo trip in '10 and fell in love (our family had previously stayed at Riverside, due to needing space for 5 people, but I'd always wanted to try out FQ). And, I'll be back in just a few short weeks to stay there again for the first part of my Girls' Escape Weekend!! Can't wait!
